Shweta S. Bobade*, Mahesh S. Mali and Divyarani R. Kamble

ABSTRACT

Nutraceuticals have gotten a lot of press because of their presumed safety. This article can be used to stay up to date on the most recent developments in nutraceutical research. Traditional nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals are pragmatic when it comes to definitions, claims, purposes, and marketing strategies. Their meanings aren't widely agreed upon. Furthermore, different regulatory definitions and registration regulatory processes exist in different parts of the world. Nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals have a substantial market share and less regulation, compared to traditional medications. For a number of reasons and goals, many manufacturers and researchers use innovative formulation technologies in nutraceutical and cosmeceutical formulations in addition to traditional formulations. To improve market appeal and sales, manufacturers often use new formulas to differentiate their products. Researchers, on the other hand, employ novel strategies to improve the activity and safety of nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals. The goal of this review is to examine the existing patents and research in nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals that use innovative formulation methodologies. For the previous 15 years, patents and research papers on nutraceutical and cosmeceutical new formulations were analyzed. Liposomes, polymeric micelles, quantum dots, nanoparticles, and dendrimers are some of the nano systems and advanced biotechnology systems that have been created to increase the therapeutic efficacy, safety, and market appeal of nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals. This analysis highlights the benefits, drawbacks, myths, regulatory definitions, and market for nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals technology. This review also seeks to separate fact from fiction in the development, research, and marketing of nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals.
